On the Data tab in the workspace I have the "Create Table" button which gives me the option to upload a local file as a data source. Can I upload an Excel file here? Not sure what kind of files work for this.
Currently the file types supported there are CSV, JSON and Avro.
You could, however upload the excel file to the dbfs path under FileStore and write code in a notebook to parse it and persist it to a table
